By their union these form a kind of chain, at least twelve inches in length, placed on the course of the ascending branch of the inferior cervical artery, beneath the internal face of the mastoido-humeralis muscle, and descending close to the attachment of the sterno-maxillaris muscle. The majority of the lymphatics of the neck, and those of the breast and shoulder, open into these glands. Their efferents, short and volummous, enter the prepectoral glands. 5. Brachial Glands. Situated beneath the anterior limb, inside the arm, these vessels are divided into two groups—one placed near the ulnar articulation, within the inferior extremity of the humerus; the other disposed in a discoid mass behind the Fig. 400.

The first group receives the vessels from the foot and the forearm, wnich accompany the superficial veins, or pass with the deep arteries and veins into the muscular interstices. It sends nine or ten flexuous branches to the second group, into which open directly the lymphatics of the arm and shoulder, and from which emerge a certain number of efferents that pass, in company with the axillary vessels, to the prepectoral glands.
